How to create a blank embedded paginated report using the powerbi-client library as master user

Hello! I'm using the powerbi-client library to create a new report in an container. I am able to use the createReport method to create reports but not paginated reports. This is the code I'm using to create reports:

import * as pbi from "powerbi-client";
const powerbi = new pbi.service.Service(
            pbi.factories.hpmFactory,
            pbi.factories.wpmpFactory,
            pbi.factories.routerFactory
        );
        let embedCreateConfiguration = {
            tokenType: 1,
            accessToken: "<access_token>",
            embedUrl: "https://app.powerbi.com/reportEmbed",
            datasetId: "<dataset_id>",
        };
        let embedContainer = document.getElementById("embed");
        let report = powerbi.createReport(
            embedContainer,
            embedCreateConfiguration
        );

My idea to create paginated reports was to change the embed url to "https://app.powerbi.com/rdlEmbed". When I do that I get an infinte spinner animation and no report is being created.

I'm generating an access token by passing this request body in:

{"datasets": [{"id": "<dataset_id>"}, "targetWorkspaces": [{"id": "<workspace_id>"}]]

Is this soley because I'm using a master user to authenticate? Or is this due to some malformed configuration that I'm passing into the library? Thanks in advance!

Hi @ys01

here is a sample attempt i made to connect to JS script.

var embedConfiguration = {
type: 'report',
accessToken: '<embed_token>',
embedUrl: '<report_url>',
tokenType: models.TokenType.Embed,
settings: {
filterPaneEnabled: false,
navContentPaneEnabled: false
}
};

var reportContainer = document.getElementById('reportContainer');

var report = powerbi.embed(reportContainer, embedConfiguration);

Did I answer your question? Mark my post as a solution! Appreciate your Kudos !!
